“I’ve been to soooo many bridal and baby showers, it’s just not even funny…my sister-in-law jokes that that move ’27 dresses’ was about me, lol. Anyway, more so nowadays, a lot of people don’t really have umbrellas at their showers, and I think that’s a shame. I think it was a fun tradition, and love the one my Mom made for me, but it’s so big, I can’t really display it anywhere. One of Lauren’s latest templates, It’s a Shower can bring back that dying tradtion, in a new, fun way…let me show you how…”

I am in LOVE with the “It’s A Shower” template! The unique design lends to a flood of mojo just looking at it. I chose to keep this project simple to show you that EASY assembly can still look awesome! so be sure to visit Kristin Bueter as well!

Use it as a Wedding or Baby Shower centerpiece, party favor, or decoration. This is easily customizable for any colors scheme, occasion or decor. You can resize it, and even fold it in half to create the PERFECT three dimensional umbrella for the invitation or thank you card. Perfect for sending “sunshine” or those “cheer up” cards too! How about a “showering you with”: love, well wishes , hugs, and kisses.

So that does it for today. It is the last day of school vacation and I am off to a sledding event with the kids sponsored by the Childhood Cancer Lifeline group. It is really nice to have organziations that reach our to families like this so you can meet and connect with others who have had similar expieriences, or just be a “normal” family again.
Thank you all for stopping by!

Our new products are available in our store March 1st! So come back tomorrow for even more ideas and inspiration!!

As per your original message to us all ….. Its a bit irritating that you cant buy this stuff and you have been showing it for three days , exactly what you said you wouldn’t do .

” Our goal is coordinating products with some instant gratification! No more drooling for days over projects you have to wait to buy supplies for! You can purchase our products upon first glance, with all the eye candy to follow.”

I’m not sure why Mel felt it necessary to simply call you on the carpet about your original intent with no valuable input, but I have to agree with Cindy. If you choose to change your business practice two months after getting into the swing of things, so be it. That’s a perk of being the owner of a company. You continually improve your processes and respond to customer’s requests to build your customer service reputation and your business. GOOD FOR YOU responding to the numerous customers who requested peeks! Those customers will become loyal followers as a result. Your readers who aren’t happy with them, could simply wait until the first to check out the new supplies. I can’t imagine why anyone would be against seeing things a few days early. We’re not talking weeks here.

Anywho…I know first hand how hard you work and how important customer service is to you…I for one applaud your efforts and appreciate them.

Lauren, you are doing a fantastic job! I LOVE the sneak peeks, it gets me excited and gives me a little time to start putting my own ideas into gear too. Thank you for all you do, you are blessed with much talent.
This umbrella has got to be one of the cutest projects ever!
